Dead of Night by Simon Scarrow
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

My kind of book. The character, Schenke, reminds me of Bernie Gunther, Philip Kerr's detective. A German cop during the war who was not a Nazi. It is a number two of a three part series that might grow. Then again if he gets killed in the next one it might not because he is the book, story and plot.
I want to know what happens to him.

Culpability by Bruce Holsinger
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

As I read this book it increased stars, that is I thought ig got better as I read. This is an important book to read and discuss. The plot, characters, etc are wonderful. The characters reveal themselves or are revealed just enough to be believable.
The real meat of the story is can machines be culpable. It matters. Cars driving themselves may or may not.
The morality of AI is on display right here in this book, today!

Hello Beautiful by Ann Napolitano
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I loved it. My book club not so much. The story is set in Chicago and starts as a delightful story about a moderatly disfunctional family. This describes most families. As the story moves on the disfunction grows and the story gets interesting.
This is a book worth readinge.

The Correspondent by Virginia Evans
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This is a brilliant book. Try to read it without readng about it. It is a book of letters. At first you may feel its not going anywhere, that is what I thought, but give it a little time and it will blow you away. It is a deep and reflective read. I loved it.

The Secret of Secrets by Dan Brown
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Typical Dan Brown. Entertaing and interesting but only slightly original. I enjoy historical fiction. Not so much a fan of fantasy. Still this is worth reading.
